Redmi K20 Pro was unveiled in China last month, where Xiaomi revealed that the device will see the light of the day in the month of July. While there aren’t any reviews to prove Redmi K20’s prowess as the fastest smartphone but the specifications had tempted us to know more about it.
SPECIFICATIONS
The Redmi K20 Pro sports a 6.3 inches Super AMOLED display with a full HD+ panel, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5.

The Redmi K20 Pro is powered by Snapdragon 855 with eight Kryo 485 cores and Adreno 640 GPU.

On the camera side of things, it features a triple rear camera module which consists of a 48MP main sensor which has a Laser and Phase-detection autofocus, a 13MP ultrawide unit (12mm focal length) and an 8MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom. The 48MP primary sensor can record videos at 4K 60 frames per second.
To sustain this much power, the Redmi K20 Pro has a 4000mAh battery that supports 27W Quick Charge 4+ fast charging. And there’s the usual dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, 3.5mm audio jack and a USB Type-C port.
